- Any attempt to steal this election away from the winner chosen by voters is an act of sedition. Full stop.
- I am calling on Senator Doug Mastriano to resign. The residents of the 33rd senatorial district deserve to be represented by someone with a higher regard for this nation, its laws, its judicial system and its government.
- Senator Mastriano is guilty of encouraging yesterday’s coup attempt in Washington and inspiring its violent actors with his words and actions since November.
- There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in PA. There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in PA. There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in PA. There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in PA. There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in PA.
- In 2019, the #PASenate voted for Act 77 which allowed for mail in voting and drop boxes. EVERY Republican Senator voted in support of it. Every. Single. One. They didn't have an issue with it until Donald Trump lost and baselessly claimed fraud. Hmmm 🤔
- 📣 HUGE news from PA Supreme Court!! 📥 Allows county drop boxes for mail in ballots ✉️ Ballots postmarked by Nov. 3 and received by Friday will be COUNTED 🚶 Poll watchers MUST reside in the county where they watch This is a major victory for election access statewide 🗳
- Earlier today, Senate President Pro Tempore Jake Corman released a statement indicating that he intends to overturn the decision of voters in the 45th senatorial district and to defy a federal judge’s order. I want to be very clear about what's happening here.
- I’m here at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Squirrel Hill. Suspect has surrendered, and first responders are still actively working to help victims and clear the scene. Unfathomable violence here today at a place of worship.
- What we are doing here today is egregious. The constitution is meant to protect the liberties and rights of Pennsylvanians, not to be used as a tool to enshrine prohibiting rights.
- The Pennsylvania Senate Democratic Caucus condemns in the strongest terms the offensive and racist depictions of Vice President Kamala Harris at a Mount Pleasant Borough Halloween Parade last night. Read our statement here: senatorcosta.com/pennsylvania-s…
- It is unconscionable that Republican US Senate hopefuls are hosting pro-gun events in the wake of such a devastating weekend of gun violence in this country.
- Today, I opposed the nomination of Senator Jake Corman to President Pro Tempore. I do not do this lightly, but I feel very passionately that he is not suited to this role.
- I am so deeply saddened this morning to learn of the passing of Franco Harris, a Pittsburgh hero and a family friend. I am holding his loved ones in my heart. Franco's legacy in our community will be forever one of joy, victory, and pride in the Steel City. Rest well, my friend.
